Ocean currents are influenced by global warming in a number of ways, but there are many unanswered issues as to precisely how this link operates. Some of these issues may be addressed in forthcoming research. Using data from 293 locations dating back 66 million yrs and classified as hiatuses in rock layers, researchers were able… Continue reading Scientists Study The Past To Understand How Ocean Currents Work And Why It Matters

Dwarf Planet Ceres As Complex And Round As The Terran Planets
However, Ceres’ composition and substantial water content imply that it was produced in the outermost solar complex where other minor worlds orbit. Ceres is unique among the asteroid belt bodies in that it was visited by NASA’s Dawn probe in 2015. It’s indeed almost 600 miles (946 km) in diameter and round as a result… Continue reading Dwarf Planet Ceres As Complex And Round As The Terran Planets
Earth’s Magnetic Shield Turns Into A Flowing River Of Electrons During Solar Storms
As a result of a new occurrence in Earth’s magnetic shielding being seen, the weather tomorrow may be gloomy with a probability of electrons. As the magnetic field formed by Earth’s core is churned, surges of electromagnetic power pulse across our planet’s magnetosphere, which shelters our world from harmful solar radiation. The event is characterized… Continue reading Earth’s Magnetic Shield Turns Into A Flowing River Of Electrons During Solar Storms
Bigger Mammals Proliferated After Dinosaurs Went Extinct, Fossil Study Suggests
Study reveals that prehistoric mammals grew larger rather than developed larger brains in order to increase their prospects of survival after the dinosaurs had died out. Researchers suggest that during the initial 10 million years following the extinction of the dinosaurs, mammals emphasized increasing their body size in order to adapt to the profound alterations… Continue reading Bigger Mammals Proliferated After Dinosaurs Went Extinct, Fossil Study Suggests
The ‘Pandemic’ Effect On Our CO2 Pollution
Human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) have been linked for the first time by scientists to brief geographical changes in atmospheric CO2. Artificial CO2 emissions were detected for the first time ever using a combo of NASA satellites plus computerized atmospheric models. CO2 emissions, even during the COVID-19 epidemic, are being monitored from orbit using… Continue reading The ‘Pandemic’ Effect On Our CO2 Pollution
Liquid Droplets That Eat Away Solid Surfaces Could Lead To New Material Design, Study Finds
For the first time, researchers have discovered why liquid droplets are able to destroy rigid surfaces. Scientists may be able to use this information to create compounds that are more resilient to degradation in the future. Scientists were able to quantify hidden variables such as the shearing stress as well as pressure caused by the… Continue reading Liquid Droplets That Eat Away Solid Surfaces Could Lead To New Material Design, Study Finds
Human DNA Fully Sequenced For The First Time: What This New Genome Means For Science
As of 2003, 92 percent of the human genome has been decoded as a result of the Human Genome Project. Researchers have been unable to understand the missing 8% for over 2 decades now. The full human genome has now been revealed by the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium, a group of over 100 experts. The researchers… Continue reading Human DNA Fully Sequenced For The First Time: What This New Genome Means For Science
The Speed Limit for Electronics Is 250,000 Times Faster Than Today’s Computers
Unfortunately, even if computer systems and cellphones are becoming quicker, there are several limitations to how much speedier they can become – this is down to the qualities of the elements used, as well as the basic rules of quantum mechanics. In accordance with research, regulated mechanisms using light & circuitry in components cannot operate… Continue reading The Speed Limit for Electronics Is 250,000 Times Faster Than Today’s Computers
The Invaders Are Everywhere: The Impact Of Earthworms On Insects
The insect life above earth suffers as a result of the introduction of earthworms to northern North America. Bug abundance, biomass, as well as species richness were all shown to be affected by this. According to their findings, changes in insect populations may have underlying reasons that have hitherto gone unnoticed. Northern North America has… Continue reading The Invaders Are Everywhere: The Impact Of Earthworms On Insects
Discovery Of Huge Ice Deposits On Mars Could Unlock Climate Secrets
Scientists have uncovered layers of ice that reveal how Mars’ orientation has affected its temperature over the last 4 million years, as per their latest research, which was published in Nature Geoscience. As a result of these discoveries, scientists are better equipped to determine when Mars last had a livable environment. As it is on… Continue reading Discovery Of Huge Ice Deposits On Mars Could Unlock Climate Secrets
